We focus on looks and performance, but muscle’s metabolic, anti-inflammatory, and disease-resisting properties make it an ...

Researchers have developed a novel method for simultaneously recording action potentials (APs)—temporary changes in ...

After decades of hype and setbacks, scientists have made impressive progress into tricking stem cells into repairing organs.

After a thorough clinical review, the benefit-risk for the use of Elevidys in non-ambulatory patients with Duchenne has been re-assessed, following two cases of fatal acute liver failureEffective imme ...

Only cardiac muscle tissue, comprising cells called myocytes, is present in the heart. In this article, we discuss the structure and function of cardiac muscle tissue. We also cover medical ...

Muscle patches generated from stem cells helped ease heart problems in monkeys and a human patient, in a potential advance towards improving treatments for the scourge of cardiac failure.

Regenerative heart therapies involve transplanting cardiac muscle cells into damaged areas of the heart to recover lost function. However, the risk of arrhythmias following this procedure is ...

While single-cell RNA sequencing looks at individual cells, including less common types of muscle stem cells and other supporting cells, profiling muscle fibers is difficult. Single-nucleus RNA ...

A neural crest cell (a type of stem cell) begins with the ability to differentiate into any number of specialist cell types, but it also appears to retain the capacity to "change its mind" and ...

Individual metabolites from energy production also have ... activities by reprogramming energy metabolism to turn cell division ability back on in cardiac muscle cells." In further studies, the ...
